Bai Yulu to Make Champion of Champions Return

Reigning World Women’s Snooker (WWS) champion Bai Yulu has been confirmed among the line-up for the 2025 Sportsbet.io Champion of Champions on 10-16 November.

The Champion of Champions features winners of major events from the preceding 12 months and Bai will feature in the line-up alongside the likes of defending champion Mark Williams and reigning world champion Zhao Xintong.

Bai lifted the World Women’s Snooker Championship title for a second consecutive year by defeating Mink Nutcharut 6-4 in the final in Dongguan, Changping.

Last week, the 22-year-old made history on the World Snooker Tour (WST) by scoring a break of 145 against Wang Xinzhong in the International Championship – the highest ever made by a female player in professional competition.

The Chinese cueist made her Champion of Champions debut at the 2024 edition, where she lost out 4-1 in the opening round to eventual champion Williams. Bai has been drawn as part of group two this time around where she will face former world champion Judd Trump for the chance to face either Shaun Murphy or Lei Peifan.

Tickets for the 2025 Sportsbet.io Champion of Champions are available now from just £15 per session. With limited seats remaining for the semi-finals and final, fans are encouraged to book early to secure their place for one of the season’s most anticipated events.
